Installation

1-23

•

Power cycle the system.  As the system boots, an icon appears on the 
control panel as shown in Figure 1-19. Press the icon.  This initiates an 
automatic dial-out sequence to the Remote Diagnostic Center.

Figure 1-19  Automatic dial-out sequence Icon.

•

The download from the Remote Diagnostic Center takes approximately 
5 to 6 minutes to complete.  During this time the system may reset sev-
eral times and a service mode icon appears on the control panel as 
shown in Figure 1-20.  The download completes with a final reset 
allowing the system to load its application firmware.  The service 
mode icon disappears.  Installation can now continue.

Figure 1-20  Service mode icon.

6.

Load one of the supply cassettes with media and load into the system.  
Enter the appropriate film usage counter value.  Change the cassette, media 
and configuration defaults as necessary. Refer to the Avantra user guide.

7.

Using the PC Imager, run an exposure array at each resolution. Use the 
current density setting (minus approximately 10 steps) on the control panel 
for a starting density for the array. This insures a density reading on both 
sides of the current density setting.  Measure the density at each resolution 
and adjust if necessary (approximately 4.2 to 4.6D).
